[color="DarkRed"]Elite Eight VS. (1) Connecticut (36-1)

UConn was a heck of a team in the regular season without question, but throw all of that out the window when you've got an epic underdog challenging them.

The second half was no different, and NC Central held on to win 72-62

[color="DarkRed"]Final Four VS. (2) UCLA (34-3)

In the first half, UCLA was a real pain in the butt to score on. We trailed 35-17 at the intermission.

The second half was an entirely different story, as we squeaked out a 50-49 victory on a buzzer-beating 3-point shot by Towson Riviere.

[color="DarkRed"]National Championship VS. (1) North Carolina (38-0)

This....is....it....mono....e....mono!

The first half went well for us as we took a 33-30 lead heading into the halftime break.

The second half became very tight and close. It all cam down to the last possession. Both teams fighting for their university, for their chance at the bigs, for their rare opportunity to be named National Champion. With the ball and 5 seconds and counting left, NC Central had to deal with the ball being batted everywhere and having to desparately toss it around, putting up a 38-foot prayer at the buzzer that scored.

Final Score: (10) North Carolina Central (32-1) 69, (1) North Carolina (38-1) 66[/color]
